They say America loves triumphant comebacks.

Media analysts believe that banning Will Smith from attending Academy events for 10 years will not be a critical blow to his film career. In their opinion, the actor will cope with this and continue to act in films.

It may slow down his career a bit, but it certainly won't cancel him out, PR expert Karie Bible told Insider.

"Hollywood loves a comeback story," she says.

Analysts are confident that the negative consequences for Will will last only in the short term.
